    Long time listener, first time commenter. I have a playlist that I made called "Sleepy Time" where I have collected all of your stories I have found so far. I thought about asking this for months but I have been to shy, or nervous that maybe it's not a good idea. You see my husband and I are first time parents, I am currently pregnant with our twins, two little girls. We are obviously nervous AND excited. I wouldn't ask for a story about our life, that seems a little narcissistic, but I would love a story about young love and perhaps parenting. I know this can be a touchy subject which is part of the reason I was afraid to ask. Anyway, all through the pregnancy so far, our little girls and myself have been falling asleep to your wonderful stories, and I just know once they are born your voice will be one they recognize for sure. 😊 Keep the magic coming, we will be listening. 🎉

    You have a beautiful idea for a story as I'm sure some ladies here are expecting or have very small children .❤ I don't think it's narcissistic at all. We all want stories we can relate to. In fact that's why we like certain stories better than others. Maybe they remind us of ourselves, a childhood memory of days gone by or someone we love and miss. Sometimes the stories fulfill a fantasy we always dreamed of.

    These stories got me through my pregnancy and are helping me survive nights in my first few months of motherhood, it's the only way I can get back to sleep after nursing. I've been wanting to comment asking for a story about parenting or something involving babies, but I've never known how to ask!

    I haven't listened to the story yet, but I want to say that the cover looks exactly like my last dream. I mean seriously! There was a little cottage with a shiny golden path leading up to it. There were lots of flowers all around it and EXACTLY these long purple ones. In this little house lived a granny, who baked very delicious apple pies and cakes. The window was wide open and the curtains floated because of the wind. It felt so...nostalgic and nice there.... It felt like home... I had the feeling that this wasn't the first time I had dreamt about this place and not the first time I had spoken to this lady. I felt a little uncomfortable disturbing her, so I simply asked the same question as before: -Don't you feel lonely here? -Lonely... no, maybe just a little... -Will it always be like this? -Always? Then I left... With my heart beating fast... I stood there on the stairs for a while and looked at the garden. Flowers everywhere. The sun was shining brightly and the colours were so vibrant....

    Thank you friend. What a wonderful renewing, rejuvenating, replenishing, totally awesome story of new beginnings set in a bountiful. beautiful garden. i felt like I was transformed into my backyard while relishing all the seasons of my lovely garden. It is still winter here in the northeast, but I recently enjoyed picking some peppermint, spearmint, and oregano peeping threw the snow on isolated brisk sunny days. What a wonderful treat for a tea drinker and pasta lover like me! The rest of my garden sleeps gently under a thin blanket of fresh white glittering snow. Before dawn, my two constant morning friends along with the albino and monarch butterflies are a mocking bird (whom I have never seen) and an adorable friendly woodchuck. Chucky, as I named him. and I have a standing agreement. He/she stays clear of my garden and I will keep him/her fully nourished with goodies each morning. Our bargain appears to have worked well The mocking bird whistles to me each morning and I. of course. reciprocate. The good Lord is always with me while I enjoy His majestic sunrises, sunsets, bird and critters. I thank God for each invigorating breath I take, then close my eyes and drift into a peaceful realm of relaxation and sleep until the dawn of a new day awakens me.😅

    Really, really liked this sleepy love story & the cover picture is so beautiful as well. My husband & I live in Tucson, Arizona. Since this was a story surrounding a garden, I have a suggestion for another sleepy story. Here in Arizona, we have a cactus called "Peniocereus greggii" or better known as Queen of The Night. All year long it looks like a dried up stick until it blooms at night in July. The flower only lasts till dawn. It smells wonderful, and attracts all kinds of pollinators. There's a small pic in my avatar. Or you can google for more information. Anyway, just a suggestion. And again, thank you so much for the work you do - to help us all feel better!

    I really enjoyed this story and listened to it twice so I could find out what happened as I fell asleep after a few minutes the first time. The music / sound scape after the story ended was equally lovely and I fell asleep thinking of all the folks I should recommend this particular one to. However, about 30 mins into the sound or maybe half way thru the entire story - I was sadly awoken by a jarring ad. I have blocked autoplay but the ad still came on. I quickly shut off my phone and eventually got back to sleep but the ad broke the beautiful spell your story had induced. I took a screenshot of when the ad popped up - if that helps? - as that was when I turned off my phone. Lovely sleep story nonetheless - so congrats and thank you! 🌱🤗🌷
